    Somehow Jake's cutoff throws are less accurate than most outfielders throwing home. It's that bad.

    why are you so scared to challenge Kurtz with nobody on base?

    if he hits a solo hr, who cares

    giving him a free base after all those pitches. smh

    Might be the lowest post count after a win I've ever seen.

    Come on man. It's not that he intentionally trying to suck in his contract season. Maybe the pressure got to him.

    I wonder how many pitching careers have been ruined simply by being drafted by the Rockies.

    Great point. If I were a GM I would look to make trades with Rockies for underperforming pitchers with good road numbers

    I like the side quest of Altuve chasing 3,000. He’s recently moved ahead of Sammy Sosa, Miguel Tejada, Micky Mantle, and got by Kenny Lofton last night. He needs 88 more hits to catch Joe Morgan and get into the top 100 hits leaders.
